MAThis tuition-free online MA at African Future University is for analysts, ministry desk officers, and civil-society researchers who must read African Union and regional-economic-community texts without being employed by those bodies. You will study how decisions move from Addis or a REC headquarters into national gazettes—and where they stop. English and French assessment options match official working languages of many files. The degree does not confer an AU post and does not use the AU emblem. Rural implementation cases (where continental policy never arrives) are required. Capstones use public documents, not leaked organograms.
MastersAfrican Future University’s Master of Public Administration (African Public Administration) is a tuition-free online master’s for people who already sit inside ministries, local governments, and parastatals. You will study how African public organisations actually work: ghost workers, file movement, bilingual circulars, and procurement that looks clean on paper. The MPA does not appoint you to the civil service and does not employ you at the African Union. Digital government is taught as registries and payments that fail when connectivity drops—especially outside capitals. English and French assessment options match how many states still file. Capstones use an anonymised process or budget file, not a speech about transformation.
MScA double-path master's for analysts in African statistics offices, ministries and think tanks. Shared core in data and policy analysis, then pathways in Data Science (modelling, geospatial, survey methods) and Development Policy (evaluation, budgeting, political economy), with a policy-analytics capstone.
MScThis tuition-free online MSc at African Future University is for revenue officers, IFMIS users, and local-government finance staff who must make digital public finance work when connectivity and identity systems fail. You will study e-filing, TIN integrity, exemptions, and budget execution as administration—not as a substitute for a professional accountancy qualification. English and French assessment options match how many African treasuries still file. Rural taxpayer and small-trader cases are required. The degree does not confer CPA or ACCA. Capstones use anonymised process files, not a claim of auditor-general appointment.
PhDDoctoral research on institutions, public administration and development outcomes in African contexts. Methods coursework followed by an original, supervised dissertation. Delivered online across African time zones.
